Alexis Rivera·В ожидании первенца

Sorry about this post being upsetting but I feel so discouraged. I've had a perfectly healthy, non-complicated pregnancy and passed every test with flying colors. I've been determined to do labor and delivery without an epidural and I was telling everyone that and my family is pretty much like "if that's what you want, go for it" and my in-laws are telling me that I will NEED it because the pain is so bad. :/ Which just pretty much scared me so much worse considering I'm a FTM. 😢

There's no shame in that either! Lol do whatever feels best for you. It's your body your baby and your labor!

honestly there's nothing to be scared of. I'm a ftm and through my whole pregnancy I kept saying I was not going to get an epidural and I stuck to that. a lot of people told me its good that I choose not to take it and there were others who told me I need to get it because I won't be able to handle the pain. When it finally came down to labor I took every inch pain and at the end I was like wow I did it 😱 I still can't believe I went through it lmao.

@boogersbugsanddirt, @mrsschutte1323 I'm definitely not shaming the epidural at all, I just wanted to experience the full thing without it to see what it's like and something I can say that I did by myself and I would feel so accomplished if that makes any sense. :) Not that an epidural is bad or anything, I just want to do the whole thing without it. :)

I needed the epidural but that's only because I've never been good with pain and my was was measuring 6 weeks ahead and I went 5 days past my due date so I had a Huge baby boy at 10lbs 9.8oz 22.5inches long and his head circumference was 15.5

There's no shame in an epi.

Idk what to do now. I told my hubby beforehand that to KEEP telling me positive things, rub my back, cuddle me, and when I'm doubting myself to tell me I don't need an epidural that I could do it, no matter what happens.

Don't be scared. Make the decision when you're in labor, that's what I did. I had one epidural and one natural.
